Resource File in Teststand

[murali_vml]

I had defined some Custom Steps for some Tests in TypePalette and defined some strings as Module names.When I install Teststand in another PC,I had got my Custom Steps and StationGlobals back by transferring the corresponding ini files,but for certain Module names which i had defined Iam seeing in Type Palette as "String not found in Language resource file".What workaround can be adopted to resolve this?

Hi,

You need to include your resource ini file that resides in the \Components\User\Language\ in your Deployment tool.

You can manually place it in the correct place on your target system, then launch TestStand OI and everything should work.

Hi Ray,
Thanx for your reply.I didn't find the Resource.ini in my Components\User\Language.Under Language,an folder English exists which has a ini file named as "CustomStrings"(but I guess we don't need to do any alterations on it).So Kindly let me know how to check it out?

Hi,

Is it the CustomStrings.ini or the TestStandStrings.ini that you have added your resource strings?

Usual practices is to leave the TestStandStrings.ini alone in the NI\Language\English folder and add or modifiy the CustomStrings.ini in the User\Language\English folder.

In the Teststand workspace file, include the ini file.
In the deployment tool, you have the option too include the resource string file along with your test sequencefiles or enable the check button to include all files in the \Users folders.

Hope this helps
